6 Maintenance
This chapter provides information for maintaining your machine and the 
toner cartridge.
This chapter includes:
• Printing a machine configuration report
• Cleaning your machine
• Maintaining the cartridge
• Redistributing toner
• Replacing the toner cartridge
• Replacing the Imaging Unit
• Replacing the Waste Toner Container
• Maintenance Parts
• Managing your machine from the website
Printing a machine configuration report
You can print the machines information and job report.
You can print a configuration report  from the machine’s control panel. 
Use the configuration page to view the current settings, to help 
troubleshoot problems.
To print a configuration page:
In Ready mode, press and hold the Stop button on the control panel for 
about 5 seconds.
A configuration page prints out.
Cleaning your machine
During the printing process, particles of paper, toner, and dust can 
accumulate inside the machine. Over time, this build-up can cause print 
quality problems such as toner specks or smearing. Your machine has a 
cleaning mode that can correct and prevent these types of problems.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. You can dampen the 
cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into 
the machine.
Caution
Cleaning the machine cabinet with cleaning materials that 
contain large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong 
substances can discolor or damage the cabinet.
Cleaning the inside
1Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord, then wait a few 
minutes for the machine to cool.
2Open the front cover. 
3Pull the imaging unit out of the machine using the handle on its 
bottom.

4Extend the top handle on the imaging unit and then use it to pull the 
imaging unit out of the machine completely.
Caution
• Do not touch the green surface on the imaging unit with your 
hands or any other material. Use the handle on it in order to 
avoid touching this area.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the imaging unit.
• To prevent damage, do not expose the imaging unit to light for 
more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper to 
protect it if necessary.
5Look inside the machine. Remove any dust, paper particles, and 
spilled toner with a damp, soft lint-free cloth.
Note
After cleaning, let the machine to dry completely.
Caution
If your machine or its surrounding is contaminated with toner, 
we recommend you to use a cloth or tissue dampened with 
water to clean it. If you use a vacum cleaner, toner blows into 
the air then might be harmful to you.
6Pull the imaging unit about half and push it until it sounds click. 
Repeat this action two or three times. 
7Push the imaging unit until it sounds click in to the machine. 
8Close the front cover firmly.

Maintaining the cartridge
Toner cartridge storage
To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in 
mind:
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until ready for use. 
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty does not 
cover damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your machine.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for 
more than a few minutes.
Expected cartridge life
The life of a toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that your print 
jobs require. When printing text at  5% coverage, the toner cartridges last 
an average of 4,000 pages for black and white printing and 2,000 pages 
for each color printing. However, the print cartridge that is shipped with 
the printer prints 3,000 pages for black and white,1,500 pages for colors.
Redistributing toner
When a print  cartridge is low on toner, faded or light areas may appear. 
It is also possible that colored images may be printed with incorrect colors 
due to flawed mixing of toner colors when one of the colored print  
cartridges is low on toner. The Smart Panel program window appears on 
the computer telling you which color cartridge is low on toner. Also, when 
the toner LED, on the control panel, indicating each individual print  
cartridge according to its color, blinks, the print  cartridge is low.
The machine is able to continue to print using the current toner cartridge 
until the Smart Panel program window appears on the computer telling 
you to replace the cartridge.
You may be able to temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the 
toner.
To redistribute the toner:
1Open the front cover.
2Holding the corresponding toner cartridge’s handle, rotate it 
counter-clockwise, and pull it out to remove from the machine.
3Holding the toner cartridge, shake thoroughly it from side to side to 
redistribute the toner.

4Grasp the toner cartridge and align it with the corresponding slot 
inside the machine. Insert it back into its slot until it clicks into place, 
and rotate the toner cartridge clockwise. 
Note
If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and 
wash it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
5Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.
Replacing the toner cartridge
The machine uses four colors and has a different toner cartridge for each 
one: yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).
When the toner colors LED, on the control panel, indicating each 
individual toner cartridge according to its color, lights, and the Status LED 
lights red, the machine cartridge is totally exhausted. Your machine stops 
printing.
Also, the Smart Panel program window appears on the computer telling 
you to replace the cartridge.
At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. Check the type of 
toner cartridge for your machine. (See Supplies on page 8.1.)
Note
The print quality may get poor if the refilled toner 
cartridge is installed, since its characteristics may 
significantly differ from the genuine.
1Turn the machine off, then wait a few minutes for the machine to 
cool.
2Open the front cover.
3Holding the corresponding toner cartridge’s handle, rotate it 
counter-clockwise, and pull it out to remove from the machine.
4Take a new toner cartridge out of its package. 
5Holding the toner cartridge, shake thoroughly it from side to side to 
distribute the toner.
